Market commentary

It would be a shame, but at this price this Ford roadster pickup is a prime candidate for hot rodding. A Mercury flathead under the hood would be sweet, but a Model B 4 cylinder with ohv head and dual carburetor intake would be even better. The possibilities are endless, including the best one: leaving it just as is and collecting many show trophies. It is a neat old truck at an entirely reasonable price.
